Good morning from the frozen South! The alpacas (which love and are built for the overnight low of 23 degrees as have) had a layer of frost on their fiber. It didn’t pick up well on camera but they glittered in the sunshine.

Any one of these gals would make a better Cabinet pick than the current “herd”…

When the youngest needs a little “assist” keeping the older girls away from her grain.

Daily farm pic because alpacas make even the hardest days just a little better. Athena says, greetings from Georgia. Once blue, will be blue again.

Find a reason to smile today. Even if it’s a kind of “wishing that <insert GOP politician here> steps in dog shit today” smile.

Looks a bit like our Rio. Redhead in the back.

None of us knows what fresh hell is coming today, so I hope this helps a little.

Good morning. I started my day with twenty minutes of reading the news and then two hours of barn therapy.
